Boston College entered Wednesday's game against No 1 Syracuse with just six wins on the season. After 45 minutes of play, the Eagles had earned their seventh win, knocking the Orange from the ranks of the unbeaten, 62-59 in overtime.

Dressed in their two-tone Nike Hyper Elite throwback uniforms , Jim Boeheim's bunch needed another late rally to keep alive their dream of staying unbeaten. The Orange (25-1, 12-1 ACC) trailed 25-17 at halftime, then scored 33 points in the second half to close the gap, but were unable to put away the Eagles in regulation.

The teams traded buckets in overtime, with Syracuse eventually trailing by four. SU rallied again to tie the game at 56. After Tyler Ennis made a free throw to put the Orange up 57-56, Patrick Heckmann scored with 40.6 seconds left to give Boston College (7-19, 3-10) a 58-57 lead.

Syracuse could not find the magic that had saved it against North Carolina State, Pittsburgh and Duke, and BC made four made free throws to seal the deal.

The Eagles now boast arguably the season's biggest upset among those seven wins.
